XTC - This Is Pop

101Volts Says:

Dec 28, 2009 - By the way, Do you know where I can get this version?

TheMightyHartley Says:

Dec 29, 2009 - Yeah, it's available on a compilation album called 'Fossil Fuel - The XTC Singles Colllection'.You should be able to download this individual track from iTunes, Play, Amazon and the usual sources, but if you don't own the album already I'd highly recommend getting it for all the other great tracks too.

101Volts Says:

Dec 29, 2009 - I never download from iTunes unless there's an exclusive album or something like that. I'll be looking for some compilation albums that have this version. Thanks!

Feb 3, 2010 - I read an interview with Andy where he talked about how Dave Gregory got the job as new XTC member. They asked him to play "This is Pop". Dave asked "Album or Single Version?" He got the job immediately.

Apr 11, 2010 - @MadiYasha It's a joy to learn there are really young XTC fans around. You're all in for a lifetime of joy. They were so much better than much of what's out there now. There are some really good current bands, but not nearly enough, and I always somehow compare them to XTC.

May 8, 2010 - @mnaran For some reason I just felt like saying I'm 18 years old and my best friend who got me into XTC Is 15. I have almost every XTC album now, I'm just missing two if you count Psonic Psunspot. I love Beating Of Hearts, Heatwave, The Disappointed, Bike Ride To The Moon and so many more of their songs. And yeah, There's good new bands (Some are favorites of mine) But they don't get the attention they deserve, Maybe with the exception of Fleet Foxes.

Oct 21, 2010 - are you kidding?? being a young XTC fan is crushingly depressing. I followed their entire short-lived, underrated, AMAZING career in what felt like less than a day and I just want more more more. but there IS no more! i'm just hoping that MAYBE, in my past life, I saw them play live. that'd keep me satisfied enough.

Jan 6, 2011 - @psychosulk There is a good band now called Field Music, they remind me of XTC, good melodies, good musicians and a little off kilter.

May 8, 2011 - God how I wish kids weren't allowed to post here. *HARD eyeroll*

xreddragonx Says:

May 8, 2011 - And I love how on the internet it becomes possible to be into bands before you're old enough to talk. I'm just waiting to read "I've (some kid between 11 and 20) been listening to (minimally successful, nearly forgotten music act from before 1990) since before I was conceived (no explanation why/how)!!!.

dessan7 Says:

May 24, 2011 - I'm 22, and so what? I got into them because I saw URGH a music war, on television one night. I'm surprised you old farts know how to use the Internet.

Jun 28, 2011 - @MadiYasha I'm a 13 year old fan - inspired from my Dad's taste!

prematurelybald Says:

Sep 2, 2011 - @xreddragonx Why. What's wrong with young people appreciating GOOD music. You seriously want us to go to LadyGagaVEVO and be like every OTHER brainwashed kid?

xreddragonx Says:

Sep 3, 2011 - @prematurelybald What's wrong with commenting on "GOOD" music without mentioning your age, or how you prefer it to "shit like lady gaga"? Many agree that comments like this ruin Youtube and is why they avoid this place. No one cares about your age (except maybe a predator). No one finds you cool for listening to your dad's music. No one cares that you're the only one in your school who does. Your taste does NOT define your worth, and if you think otherwise, you ARE brainwashed.

xreddragonx Says:

Sep 3, 2011 - @mantarayZ7 Now THAT'S the kind of comment we need on Youtube. Thanks for the cool info. :)

xreddragonx Says:

Sep 3, 2011 - @dessan7 Yea, even though it was "old farts"who invented the internet and the web. Go make this comment to Tim Berners Lee (56 years old, created the very first web browser in 1989, i.e. the internet as we now know it), genius.

prematurelybald Says:

Sep 3, 2011 - @xreddragonx I am not trying to be self-richeous, and frankly my dad likes shitty country&western music, so that is also irrelevent. It is alll you sadsacks who have to complain about everything that ruin Youtube.Other shit comments include1). 5 people don't like pop.2). I hope my neighbors like this song &3). Shut up and enjoy the music- in some crazy font that I can't figure out. I also avoided mentioning my age in my comment, and no, I do not think I'm cool for liking it.

prematurelybald Says:

Sep 3, 2011 - @xreddragonx and also, pretty much every Youtube comment is a personal thing where you negative people might shrug your shoulder and say "no one cares" isn a poutyass voice, but remember, it is COMMENTARY! Sure it is cliched to say your young and like this kind of music, but it is the right side to be on. Maybe we can restore the music industry? But I definately don't see how a comment like that "ruins Youtube".
